| HOMEWORK
The children
have homework four days a week: Monday
through Thursday. Homework is due
the following day. The homework is always
related to something we are doing in
class. Sometimes the children will be
building on something we have done or
practicing a skill we are working on. On
other occasions their homework
anticipates something we will be doing
the next day.
Children are
responsible for doing their homework and
bringing it to school the next day. I do
not expect parents to check the
children’s homework, though it is fine
if you choose to help your child with
it. I strongly encourage the children to
put their finished homework into their
backpacks as soon as they complete
it.
Homework is
always due the day after it is assigned.
Children who do not bring their
homework in will need to make it up at
school the next day or have a double
assignment the following evening. It is
really helpful if your child has a quiet
place and regular time to do homework,
so it becomes part of the day’s routine.
There are times
when some unforeseen circumstance makes
doing homework impossible. If that
occurs, just send a note in with your
child. Likewise, if your child is having
difficulty with homework assignments, it
is really helpful if you let me know.
See the "Questions
Sampler" on the 3-S Web site for
suggestions of questions you can use if
your child asks for help with math
homework.
